As I have been blessed with 2 left hands can anyone recommend someone to help or fit my intercooler in Brisbane.

Cheers
Mark

Also at a realistic cost. As I only have the intercooler they will need to be able to fabricate the other bits and pieces required to fit it.

There are several places around Geebung would do that for you.
Performance car place on corner right by the station. Forget the name but they did good job for me a while back.

Same old story, want anything V8 at a good price Head up to QLD, want anything Turbo at a good price, Head down to Vic,
want to buy somthing cheap from the boot of a car, in a dim carpark, Go to sydney,..

if you shop about, I bet you will find it cheaper to take a short holliday in Vic and get it done, then to have some one do it in Qld, ..
Maybe it is cause it is Colder, and they can run more boost, but down south they are a dime a dozzen

I want to upgrade the intercooler and exhaust on the TDi300 I'm getting installed in my Rangie.

Try Brothers Off road at Capalaba their number should be in the list of land rover specialist in Queensland. Its a bit of a drive from Bracken Ridge but Glen is right into custom modifications. I have seen his work and I reckon he wouldn't have any trouble in doing the work.

Glen is installing the TD1 in my Rangie. I haven't talked to him about pipework yet, will be going in to see him later this week.

I don't know much about diesels and turbocharging them....especially with regard to modifying them. All my experience has been with petrol 6's ie
Skylines R32 and R33. The R33 comes stock with 187Kw at the flywheel
mine currently has 200+Kw at the rear wheels and is docile enough for the wife to drive.
I'm finding it hard to find reliable info on the TDi's
